Although many officials in the Department of External Affairs believed that a continental free trade agreement was in Canada’s best interests, King confided to his diary that he could not let the negotiations go forward because a successful outcome would destroy the British Empire and Commonwealth: ‘I am sure in so doing, I have made one of the most important decisions for Canada, for the British Commonwealth of Nations that has been made at any time.’1 In October 1949, while being fêted in London, Prime Minister Sydney Holland of New Zealand, made one of his characteristic spontaneous and ill considered statements. He declared, ‘I want the people of Britain to know that we will send all the food that they need, even if we have to send it free’.2 These two stories tell historians a lot.

    Ppbs and the Choice of Policy Alternatives

    ' ... PPBS AND THE CHOICE OF POLICY ALTERNATIVES by "'- Paulos MUkias ABSTRACT The research traces the evolution of PPBS through early reform movements. Case studies of the New York Bureau of Municipal Research, the Borough of Richmond, the United States Department of Defense and the Canadian Treasury Board are con­ ducted because of their special significance. The study is divided into two parts. The first part describes the circumstances leading to the evolution of PPBS. Similar reform movement~ that were going on in Canada are briefly discussed and a special effort is made to assess the impact of the transplantation of PPBS in the Canadian system. The second part attempts to portray PPBS decision making both in theory and practice, the main aim being to relate PPBS policy alternative selection to political re al ity . An empirical study was con­ ducted in the Canadian Treasury Board to test several hypotheses that portray PPBS as a hybrid rather than a ratmnal or an iJncremental budgeting model.
